Editors questions
- Will xbmcbuntu be in both x86 and x86_64 or just x86_64
- Whats xbmcbuntu situation with legacy hd2000 and anything nt supported in oss hardware wise now?
- Any notes or anything worth mentioning further?
- Updates t the hardware lists below?
Considering a more general list is be done also for other platforms like android sort of thing for other pages this would probably be a good time to specify things in a separate table for this though this table is xbmcbuntu. idk havent looked at main hardwrae requiremts list atm.
There are some discrepancies between this list and the main one Supported_hardware idle like to clarify before updating the other one as well.

- x86_64 (Intel/AMD) processor computer capable of booting from CD-ROM/USB drive.
- Optional is to install to a 8GB (or larger) USB-flash-drive or internal harddrive.
- Larger than 8GB is required, if you have a lot of media as thumbs and art are cached on it.
Note: If you like to install XBMCbuntu to USB and it still has U3 software on it (uninstall that first)
.
Note: ATI Radeon cards lower than UVD2.2
, are not supported with Ubuntu & variants 12.10 base system, using fglrx, due to changes in ATI's drivers. Legacy cards that support the minimum OpenGL requirements still can be installed, but you wont get any hardware acceleration playback in XBMC with fglrx and must remain at a specific version to work without bugs..
